Basic Format

https://space-[space_hash].video-dns.com/[embed_id]/[filename]

Example

To split the embed hash into both the space hash and the embed id you take the first 5 digits for the space hash and the next 10 digits for the embed id.

Keyframes

Optimizing video files for smooth scrubbing involves adding extra keyframes, which are reference points in a video. Standard videos space keyframes at intervals, leading to choppiness when scrubbing through the video, as the player calculates frames from distant keyframes.
